Call for papers

Strategic entrepreneurship has become an exciting new field at the intersection of strategic management and entrepreneurship research. However, most research within the field has focused on identifying what organization-level factors cause firm-level entrepreneurial outcomes, rather than how and why these factors actually work in terms of cross-level effects. In addition, many organization design variables have not been considered.
Consequently, the strategic entrepreneurship field stands to gain from adopting a multi-level approach to these issues, including explicit micro-foundations for the strategic entrepreneurship construct itself and an understanding of how organizational structure and organizational control impact firm-level entrepreneurial outcomes.
This calls for attention to such issues as:

  • The role of organization design variables as antecedents of firm-level entrepreneurship, and how are the effect of the antecedents mediated through the actions and interactions of managers and employees?
  • To what extent do control and reward systems stimulate or hinder entrepreneurial behaviors?
  • What roles do front-line, middle-level and top managers play within the entrepreneurial processes?
